MOORE, Okla. – Detectives are now investigating a family’s claim
that their father was beaten to death by several Moore Police officers around
midnight Saturday, reports
CBS affiliate KWTV.
Nair Rodriguez told KWTV that incident started after she
slapped her daughter Lunahi Rodriguez at the Warren Theater in Moore, Okla. early Saturday
morning and then stormed away. Her husband, Luis Rodriguez, then chased after her into
the theater’s parking lot, where he was confronted by police asking to see his
information, the family said.
Nair and Lunahi said Luis tried to bypass the officers and
stop his wife before she drove away in anger. That’s when the officers took him
down and started beating him, according to the family.
Lunahi Rodriguez said her father was beaten to death by five
Moore police officers in the movie theater parking lot.
“When they flipped him over you could see all the blood on
his face… he was disfigured, you couldn’t recognize him,” Lunahi said.
Nair Rodriguez said she recorded the beating with her cell
phone, which police confiscated.
“I saw him. His [motionless] body when people carry it to
the stretcher… I knew that he was dead,” Nair told KWTV.
Nair said that her husband’s only intention was to break up
the fight between herself and her daughter.
“I told [police] I hit her and he was just trying to reach
me. Why didn’t they arrest me?” she said.
“My mom was taking a video and asking, ‘What are they doing
this for? Why?’” Lunahi said. “They didn’t really give an explanation.”

Cops like to kneel on your chest with all their weight to stop your breathing and render you unconscious or dead.
I believe this is what happened to this guy and it's obvious the guy is already dead when they claim he's resisting and put the cuffs on him. They even prop him up to make it look likes he's alive when it's clear he's not breathing.
I don't think the cops here intended to kill the guy, but it's obvious they knew what they had done and are more worried about covering up their actions then they are about saving this guys life. Instead of giving him CPR they continued to kneel on him and act as if he was alive.
